Product Line Details: Element3; Coated Rotor

The Element3; Coated Rotor line by Raybestos focuses on providing rotors with a protective coating that helps resist rust and corrosion, extending the rotor's service life. This coating also aids in maintaining a clean surface for optimal brake pad contact. The 680977FZN rotor features a vented design to improve heat dissipation, which is critical for maintaining braking efficiency under heavy use.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake rotor has a nominal thickness of 0.984 inches (25.000 mm) and a discard thickness of 0.906 inches (23.000 mm), ensuring it meets Ford F-150 braking system tolerances. The rotor's outside diameter measures 13.705 inches (348.100 mm), with an inside diameter of 10.181 inches (258.600 mm). It includes 7 mounting bolt holes arranged on a 5.906-inch (150.000 mm) bolt circle diameter, compatible with the Ford F-150 hub assembly. The overall height of the rotor is 3.142 inches (79.800 mm), and the center hole diameter is 3.547 inches (90.100 mm). The rotor's smooth surface type and vented design help reduce brake fade and improve heat management during braking.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Ford F-150
• Addresses brake noise caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Improves heat dissipation to reduce brake fade during towing or heavy loads
• Prevents rust and corrosion buildup with coated surface
• Restores proper brake rotor thickness for safe stopping distances

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Raybestos 680977FZN rotor on your Ford F-150, ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris. Verify the rotor thickness before installation to confirm it is above the discard thickness of 0.906 inches. Use proper torque specifications for the 7 mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to ensure even wear and optimal braking performance.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Raybestos rotors, including the Element3; Coated Rotor 680977FZN, are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM standards for fit, form, and function. The coated surface provides additional protection against corrosion, contributing to longer rotor life. Warranty coverage details should be confirmed with the product documentation or manufacturer, as it may vary by region and application.
